A riveting pirate tale set in the eighteenth century during the golden age of piracy in the Caribbean, perfect for fans of Emma Carroll and Jacqueline Wilson. It' s 1718: pirate ships sail the oceans and brutal slave masters control the plantations. Eleven-year-old Abigail Buckler lives with her father in the Caribbean. Her clothes are made of finest muslin so she can' t play in them, not that there' s anyone to play with anyway. She isn' t even allowed to go out alone. But when pirates attack Abigail' s life will change forever. Suddenly her old certainties about right and wrong, good and bad start to unravel. Maybe Abigail doesn' t have to be so ladylike after all. . . Packed with historical detail about the Atlantic slave trade, the ravages of empire and human cost of providing luxuries like sugar, cotton and tobacco to Europe, Blackbeard' s Treasure is a page-turning, swashbuckling adventure which takes a look at the real pirates of the Caribbean.
